It amazes me that Christians believe in the Bible, but most do not recognize spirit attachment as real. Removing attached spirits was a very common healing method for Jesus.
In 1993 a 38 year old Emergency Room nurse came to me for pain management using hypnosis. I had just learned hypnosis and a mutual friend told her about me. She had a letter from her Dr. I requested stating that it was ok to use hypnosis as pain management, as pain is a symptom and blocking it may result in not detecting a serious illness like cancer.
The pain in her left shoulder and arm was idiopathic, and according to the Dr's, it was most likely caused by arthritis.
What happened next was totally outside the belief system of this left brained logical bean counter's belief system.
The woman was somnambulistic, meaning she immediately went into a deep trance. All I did was ask her, "If that pain in your shoulder could speak, what would it say?"
A male voice answered me out of this woman's mouth and yelled, "Get out of here!"
Startled, I replied ""Who said that?"
This man tells me his name. I continued by asking what he was doing here, and he replied that he was killed in a car accident in South Williamsport on Rt 15, on the corner by McDonald's. He followed his body in the ambulance to the hospital where he met this nurse in the ER and moved into her body.
I continued to ask questions and he told me his address, phone number, and many details about his family and friends.
When asked what caused his actual death, he replied that he was thrown from the car and it rolled on him. What part of your body I asked? "My left side."
This was my very first realization that memories are stored in the soul and not the human brain as this man's memory of the pain from his injuries was manifesting in the nurse.
I asked him why he stayed with her and he replied, "I love her."
Me, "If you love her, why are you causing her this pain?"
Him, "I didn't know I was causing it."
Me, "But you know now?"
Him, "Yes."
Me, "You realize that you need to leave?"
Him, "Yes."
Me, "Would you like to apologize to her for the pain you caused her?"
Him, "Yes."
He then apologized to her, his voice coming out of her mouth.
So I asked her, "Would you accept his apology?"
She replied "Yes" as her left arm raised up, stretching upward as far as it could reach. Suddenly, her arm went limp and fell back down.
He had left to cross over to Heaven and her pain was totally gone.
I had recorded the session, and gave her the copy of the tape. It was very surreal for me, and took a long time to process into my belief system.
This was the first of many similar sessions. They quickly adapted to use prayer and often the results were even more profound.
Almost thirty years later, I seldom do sessions, and long ago stopped using hypnosis. Now I just take hold of the consciousness of the attached spirit and pull it out, focusing more on healing the wound in the person's soul that opened the door to allow the deceased spirit to enter.
This is not fiction or delusion. I was a university professor at the time, and returned to get a degree in psychology & study anatomy & physiology and religion(s) to better understand the realms of consciousness. The last twenty years were focused on learning the neuroscience of the process, as I believe in evidence based medicine.

I’m pretty sure most liberals are possessed. This is the only decent explanation for their cognitive dissonance.

Totally agree. And socialists. C.S. Lewis said the landscape is dotted with Christians. Not half, not most, dotted.
Sorry I see you have mentioned Hell. Is it a place like heaven is a place or is the language we use strictly metaphorical? When people are holding on to their sin are they, as spirits, doing it in a place of sorts? Like you say bardo is a place of darkness. There have been quite elaborate depictions of Hell — e.g., the Divine Comedy & Paradise Lost. I wonder if any of that conform to your notion? And while I’m on the subject, does Heaven also conform to your notions, e.g., many rooms in Heaven, etc., or is that strictly metaphor?
Is hell real? YES
Hell is the perception a soul experiences when they hold onto sin and try to enter the Divine Consciousness of Heaven. The purifying consciousness of Heaven burns off the sin, creating heat in the process.
The great lie satan uses to capture souls is that “The Light will kill you.”
A soul with sin approaching Heaven is like placing a dense object in the high frequency of a microwave. It heats up and catches on fire.
Luke 12:49
Jesus stated “I have come to bring fire on earth, and how I wish it were already kindled!”
Want to read an interesting history? Read about Justin Martyr. According to the roman court records, they tried to burn him in a fire, but the fire would not harm him and they had to pull him from the fire and stab him to kill him.
The same is true of Daniel’s three friends, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego were not burned when thrown into the furnace.
The Holy Spirit cleanses sin from our souls. That’s why the only unforgivable sin in the New Testament is denying or rejecting the Holy Spirit. It too is a fire, but a much lower frequency than the fire in Heaven. I’ve watched it, it looks like a golden swirling Light, cleansing the fear from people’s souls just prior to death.
It’s also the reason that a prayerful blessing to an evil person is like placing hot coals upon their head.
“it is a demon. period.
dead souls don’t wonder. They go to One Place or The Other 🔥
Demons wander ... “
Exactly.
When Heaven come to earth(and it will), evil cannot exist on earth.
This is the parable of the weeds in Matthew 13 that will be gathered and burned at harvest.
Until JESUS won the victory over sin and death on the cross and through His resurrection, He cast out demons through His FATHER.
AFTER JESUS WON THE VICTORY...
JESUS IS GIVEN ALL AUTHORITY
JESUS came and told his disciples, “I have been given all authority in heaven and on earth.” (Matthew 28:18)
DEMONS ARE CAST OUT IN JESUS’ NAME
15 And then He told them, “Go into all the world and preach the Good News to everyone. 16 Anyone who believes and is baptized will be saved. But anyone who refuses to believe will be condemned. 17These miraculous signs will accompany those who believe: They will cast out demons in my name, and they will speak in new languages. 18 They will be able to handle snakes with safety, and if they drink anything poisonous, it won’t hurt them. They will be able to place their hands on the sick, and they will be healed.”
19 When the Lord Jesus had finished talking with them, he was taken up into heaven and sat down in the place of honor at God’s right hand. 20And the disciples went everywhere and preached, and the Lord worked through them, confirming what they said by many miraculous signs. (Mark 16:15-20)
“Not one time have I heard you mention the Name of JESUS. Demons are cast out in His Name alone.”
If I were doing it from ego and claiming to use the will of Jesus to do the work, what you say would be true.
But if I step aside and allow Jesus who is in me to take over and work through me, then Jesus does not proclaim His own name as it is by His Father’s authority working through Him that the work is done.
This is how the Holy Spirit works when it does the work through us. It’s not me speaking, so you would need to criticize Jesus for not using His own name. Not me.
“On that day many will say to me, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?’ And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from me, you evildoers’” (Matthew 7:21-23).
Thanks for the answer, but I feel I’m almost asking a geographical question that involves space. I’m asking if there is a spacial-like quality to the spiritual. As spirits, I still think they inhabit physical space, they are physically in our world. But I’m also wondering if Heaven and Hell are spacial, or maybe the spacial analogies are just metaphors of sorts that help us relate. When you went to Heaven did you feel that it was a place? A place where you can talk to other spirits, like a person or an animal that has died? And, if so, are the spirits in Hell in a place where they have not shed their sins –- not just in a state of mind. And, as a follow-up question... if the spirits in Hell did shed their sins could they enter Heaven? A lot of people believe there is no escaping Hell.
“On that day many will say to me, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?’ And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from me, you evildoers’” (Matthew 7:21-23).
I just saw your post after I posted.
think of radio stations on a dial, or tv stations. Each one is a different reality that exists in the same space at a different frequency. So it is with Heaven and Hell.
Hell would be the equivalent of being stuck in only the Heavy Metal, Punk and Rap stations.
I say this with humor intended, but there is a lot of truth in this metaphor.
tired&retired,
You are off base in Your theology. I pray You will know the TRUTH and TRUTH will set you free.
JESUS said, ““Yes, I am the vine; you are the branches. Those who remain in Me, and I in them, will produce much fruit. For apart from Me you can do nothing. (John 15:5)
Bless you.
Hell
The food is British
The cops are German
The cars are French
The lovers are Swiss
And the whole thing is run by Italians
At the time St Paul wrote the Letter to the Ephesians, the Jews used the word "heaven" to describe several things. The first was the sky and the air around us where where birds flew and clouds floated. The second was the sphere where the moon and the planets and the stars moved. The highest heaven was where God resided:
2 Corinthians 12:2
I [Paul] know a man in Christ who fourteen years ago was caught up to the third heaven—whether in the body or out of the body I do not know, God knows.
It is the first of these heavens (the air and sky) where it was thought the demonic spirits moved and dominated.
We another example from Paul here:
Ephesians 2:2
In which you once walked, following the course of this world, following the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that is now at work in the sons of disobedience—
Hope that helps.
“Thanks for the answer, but I feel I’m almost asking a geographical question that involves space. “
Your question/comment is a good one and very valid. Remember Jesus telling us we must go within to find God. This is very true.
It is not about traveling to a distant location, but merely cleansing our souls so they can grow and expand awareness to be as Jesus stated when He came out of the wilderness, “My Father and I are One.”
From a neuroscience standpoint, in mid life crisis the frequencies of consciousness as measured by an EEG synchronize. Specifically the Beta frequencies of the prefrontal cortex which are the last to develop (about age 25), synchronize with the emotional child Theta frequencies. When this happens, the soul becomes whole at the lower level and allows it to expand and increase to the Gamma frequencies.
Gamma frequencies are when a person is truly born again as at these frequencies a person begins to perceive directly with their consciousness beyond their physical body.
But just perceiving is not enough. You must learn what you are perceiving like a newborn child who sees, tastes, hears and feels needs to learn what they are perceiving.
Transcendence is the goal of life in a physical body. It is where your soul that is a seed of God consciousness grows to expand beyond the seed pod physical body that was planted here in the darkness of earth to grow.
“think of radio stations on a dial, or tv stations. Each one is a different reality that exists in the same space at a different frequency. So it is with Heaven and Hell.”
Yep... Absolutely. And it exists within and among the whole of the physical. The carrier wave permeates the universe. Yet it does not displace the physical because it is not physical.
Well, that is anti-biblical.
You might remember it now...
“Our Father, which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy Name. Thy Kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, As it is in heaven. “
And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea. Heaven is not coming to earth. There will be a new one.
God's kingdom is spiritual. The prayer is asking for people to know Him and to follow Him--not to bring the physical Heaven to a physical Earth.
